    "content": " On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I raised a similar point of order in the Ninth Parliament, in 2006 concerning the order of Questions on the Order Paper. The ruling of the Speaker then was that all Ministries are equal, and no Ministry is more prominent than the other. Therefore, there is no Ministry that should be given preference, so that Questions directed to it always appear first on the Order Paper. It is not by accident that some Questions always appear last on the Order Paper. You will notice that even in the morning, the Question that was directed to the Ministry of Water and Irrigation appeared last on the Order Paper. This afternoon, our Question is still the last one. The same case applies to the Ministry of Energy and other Ministries. Is there any Ministry that is superior to others? Is there any Ministry that should be answering its Questions last while others answer their Questions first? The ruling is already on record, but we need your guidance."
